Motivation

Was discussing something with a friend just now.

Even though (as usual) the dialogue was disrupted by rubbish and nonsense, some truths remain in the dialogue.

The truth is, i really wished i had the enthusiasm of youth.

I may not be old, but my motivation level has dipped to an all time low. 4 years of secondary school and 2 years of JC may be long, but i can say at least i enjoyed those days. I can say that, then, sometimes, doing homework can be a joy.

Where are the days when i can do work in advance? When i look forward to actually getting a challenging piece of work that stimulates the mind?

Nope. Non existent now. Now, the keyword is copy. Maximal gains for minimal efforts? Is that what is really so important? Is it really better to copy a piece of work then to really spend a whole day trying to figure out some problems? Scoring high marks, is that really so important?

If you ask me, i rather prefer the days where learning is so pure; where marks do not serve as the primary motivation for work, but rather, just the zest for the academic subject.

Now if you tell someone that you are doing work that have no grades, ya, there will only be one response. ya. Your brain got problem.
